i cut friends off for not being as good of a friend to me as i was to them. i would've never put you in a situation to make y'all feel how i felt. i'm good to all my friends but i know when the energy is not returned...i'm just a good friend and not stupid. let that sink in.
Intelligent people are INTENSELY OBSERVANT. They can literally see right through people: their intentions, their animosity, and their lies. That's why they don't entertain performative energy, they live a quiet life & mind their own business.
A LOT of MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES disappear when bills are paid, rent is secure, and the fridge is full. Peace is expensive. And pretending money doesn't affect mental health is privilege.
